This is a scam with the sole purpose of obtaining your personal information! I've done mystery shopping for 15 years, and no company is going to offer $400.00 to do a "variety of shops." I've received a couple other similar offers, some are so "real" (one was a job opportunity for a courrier company) that I almost fell for it!! Be careful out there!

This is absolutely fraud. I've mystery shopped and I now schedule mystery shops. I do advertise online, but I completely bypass Craig's List because of these scammers. Real companies will be found on sites that checkout the companies before they're allowed to list, i.e. jobslinger & volition. ShadowShopper is legit too, but who wants to pay for it when free sources are out there. The mystery shoppers association also has job boards if you're looking for real work. If you don't have to work for your money, then it's fake...plain and simple. Also, it's not likely that you'll find enough work in one area with one company.

I signed up for this before reading this post and after a month I got a Fed ex envelope containing a letter (not on a letter head) with instructions on what to do and where. It also included a check for $1, 800.00, I was to cash the check and from there I was sopposed to take out $150.00 as my payment and $50 for a shop at Walmart (I could keep the products purchased). Then I was sopposed to visit a Western Union at a Publix location they said and wire the remaining money to another shopper in Georgia. Appereantly, the location in Georgia had complaints of other money transfers/wire getting lost and Linkshare was researching this on behalf of the Western Union company. Here is what I think is going on...
The check I got was from a:

Comcast Financial Corporation
A comcast cable communications Group Company

It appears very real and probably is, however I think this company is scamming account info on corporations and issueing froudulant checks from their account. Then they have YOU cash it and you keep $200.00 ($150.00 for your payment and $50.00 from the walmart shop) and the remaining balance of $1, 600.00 is the money they (the scammer) makes. It isnt bad for them, cause they never cashed the check and they made $1, 600.00 for just issueing you a fraudlant check and having u do all the dirty work, including the issue with your bank and local Police with the investigation. I to have done mystery shopping and first your not getting paid ahead of time for a assignment and secondly why the big payout?

THIS SMELLS LIKE A SCAM, Im gonna be forwarding the info to my local Police and let them look into it maybe save some poor company the headaches!

I just got forwarded this scam email from someone who I assume they were trying to get input from their family and friends. Anyway doing a search on it (as bells went off in my head that said "SCAM SCAM!!" I found this thread! Yes it is a scam! No reputable job would have you "evaluate the postal system by sending money" especially to someone you do not even know! First of all it is AGAINST THE LAW! Second of all, once you send money out of the country there is no one that can get it back! You sent it! You are responsible! The fake Money Order they send you will bounce but it will take a week or more to do so and then the bank will come back on you and say YOU owe that money because once sign the back of it / cash it / bank it, you vouch for its validity!

This is the email that was forwarded to me .. I notice they use different email addresses or different links because they don't want to be caught. When one is caught they change it to another. They have been around for a year .. this one is lasting longer than the one I got caught in before because of this! The scammers are getting too smart for the average person.

I have been doing Mystery Shopping and have yet to have someone try to Solicit me via an email especially from someone I've never even heard of before. I started out by using Shadowshopper.com and paying for a one month membership to get me started up with the companies that were truly looking for Secret Shoppers.

I just received the above mentioned emails but the name of David Fossil isn't listed on it this time. The name and email addresses have changed. So beware guys.

I just got these emails. I had applied on my university's job board for a company called ShellMark. Then the next day, a guy with the same name as the ShellMark executive emailed me this one below:

Dear Applicant,

Thanks for getting back to us Ontime, My Name is James Harden Linkshare Corporation, i link suppliers who have been personally tested to buyers and can stand for 100% .LinkShare Corporation provides ecommerce businesses with a wide range of online marketing services including Search Marketing (SEM), Lead Generation and Affiliate Marketing. Advertisers can increase their online sales by leveraging LinkShare's massive performance marketing network, along with expert consultative services and patented technology. Superior service combined with technology innovation allows advertisers and publishers to acquire and retain new customers, increase revenue and drive results.LinkShare clients include Fortune 500 and other prominent and emerging companies doing business online, including J.C. Penney, 1-800-Flowers.com, American Express, and Avon Products. LinkShare was founded in 1996 and is headquartered in New York City, with offices in San Francisco, Chicago, Tampa, London and Tokyo.We source for buyers and suppliers at the same time so I can link them to make profit. On every actual purchase made, we have a profit of 20% .I source for buyers and suppliers within and outside the United States of America. I am constantly on the move organizing seminars to bring buyers and suppliers together. I need someone that can complete billings, invoicing and payments on my behalf and get them to the vendors, as well as being capable to receive payments from my buyers from time to time, so the linking is effective and immediate.The only way I am entitled to the 20% payment is if the actual deal is concluded through me.. When suppliers and buyers go head to head, I am at a loss as they can transact directly with one another without my knowledge. This position offers you 10%, you're offered a very good pay as transactions are steady, continuous and constant. An average transaction is for $2, 000.00 and over and you can handle as many as 3 transactions in a week as most payments are made in installment. The pay is good enough to encourage you to work hard and be efficient while it's more than enough for me to stay in business while encouraging me to source harder and link more suppliers. I travel a lot and when buyers want to make any purchase, when i'm on company errand, heshe has to hold-on till I return, to place an order, on the long term. The effect is our customers start sourcing for suppliers on their own, so having an assistant/representative easily reachable has its numerous advantages. We have lost too many deals due to this and i'm trying to put an end to it.

The best form of payment used are business checks and direct bank transfers they are readily available and confirmed on the spot, they are not the only means used but they are the best for our process. Most of the buyers we work with are those we've previously handled successful transactions with in the past, new buyers are verified and confirmed before the linking process occurs. You have nothing to worry about. The mode of operation is as follows; you receive the payment directly from the individual buyer, in your mail, usually via ups and have them cashed. You send the payment to our suppliers/vendors when I need you to, or directly to the company and your pay is 10% of the amount sent to you. All charges during cashing, sending of payments and transaction completion will be deducted from the balance after you have deducted your pay and not deducted from your own money so your pay is fixed on the amount cashed per transaction. You can handle as many as 3 or more transactions per week, but you'll be handling one (1) initially to see how efficiently and how quickly you can carry out the completion.

On 3 transactions you're sure of nothing less than $600 weekly. The hours are flexible and you can decide when you want to work as what you'll be doing initially is cashing the payments and completing the transaction to the supplier. I don't need you online 24/7, just to be online on a daily basis and at least check your e-mail regularly. Working with me will also not disturb your other jobs, (If you have any) as I require that applicant only have easy access to the internet, be reachable easily and respond/carry out instructions sent as soon as possible.

Please show your continued interest in this position by sending me the following info.

To show that this guy really did email me about something that sounded more legit, here was the first email I received after having sent my resume to a posting:

Good day,
We received your resume from your university/college career services and we would like to know if you are still searching for a job/position.Any interested applicant can please get back to us with immediate effect.Thanks for your co-operation.

They MIGHT (emphasis on might) use your information to try to take out credit cards in your name or other identity theft tactics. Might not but keep a look out for these things. Keep documentation on this stuff and you might want to ask more about this on http://ksforum.inboxrevenge.com because they investigate this type of fraud and might have more advice for you than anything I could tell you.

I am such an idiot. I replied to the email and sent my details through - I didn't think it sounded right but thought I had nothing to lose as they had my CV with address, number and name on it anyway. I am in a panic now as I don't know what they will do with my details...what do you think will happen?

yes i got an email too and i was a little doubtful as to how genuine it was but they already had my CV because i applied via Gumtree. What will they do with my details? and i replied to them telling them i was interested. Apparently they are now sending me a cheque. What do i do?

Another thing that everyone should be particularly attentive to is the email address that you are receiving the Mystery Shopper invite from. You may notice that the email address is not ****@linkshare.com which is the only domain that Linkshare emails originate from.
Linkshare is a very reputable company and there are a million scams around targeting these types of companies. Even Ebaymotors. In any case, it's always best to actually call the company in question before doing anything.
